Since 2011, the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) "Pavlodar" has been operating in the Pavlodar region. Twelve new production facilities have been opened here, including factories for aluminum, petroleum coke, caustic soda, and other materials. Products from this zone are actively exported to CIS countries and abroad.
Among the large projects are factories for the production of epoxy compounds, reagents for the oil and gas industry, and other innovative enterprises.
